Boils: Hope you are seeing a pregnancy provider. Pregnancy itself can be a stress that can make you more prone to infection. Elevated blood sugars or even gestational diabetes can occur and this makes you susceptible to infections. See your provider and get checked. If boils they need to be lanced.
